Download or read book Common Stocks As Long Term Investments written by Edgar Lawrence Smith and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Lawrence Smith, (1882-1971) was an economist, investment manager and author of the influential book “Common Stocks as Long Term Investments”, which promoted the then-surprising idea that stocks excel bonds in long-term yield. . He worked in banking and other financial endeavors in the years after college, then signed on in 1922 as an adviser to the brokerage firm Low, Dixon & Company. While there, he later recounted in his Harvard class’s 50th reunion yearbook, “I tried to write a pamphlet on why bonds were the best form of long term investment. But supporting evidence for this thesis could not be found.” This discovery led to the 1924 publication of “Common Stocks as Long Term Investments.” The book was widely reviewed and praised, and became a key intellectual support for the 1920s stock market boom. Its success enabled Smith to launch a mutual fund firm, “Investment Managers Company.” It also garnered him an invitation from the economist John Maynard Keynes, who had favorably reviewed the book in “The Nation”, to join the Royal Economic Society. The Wall Street Crash of 1929 brought a turn in Smith’s fortunes.—Print Ed.
Download or read book The Mysteries of Investing Revealed written by Gary Wilson and published by WinePress Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invest in common stocks? Gary Wilson believes almost everyone needs to invest in common stocks. Only common stocks have the ability to grow in value at a sufficient rate to meet retirement goals and provide the average investor with the ability to beat the inroads of inflation. In fact, he believes an investor needs an average return of 15% to meet all of an investor's needs. Is an average return of 15% doable? Gary answers that question in this book. He goes even further, teaching the small investor how to meet this target return. This book includes the information a small investor needs to use common stocks to prepare for the future. He also includes common stock recommendations and the tools to evaluate some of these recommendations. The world is changing. The world of investing is changing. What does all this mean to the average investor trying to meet his day to day needs? Gary provides answers to this question and many more. He examines such things as derivatives, exchange traded funds, mutual funds and more in addition to just common stocks. Practical guidance is provided for evaluating and using some of the newer investments available to all common stock investors. Yes, the world is changing, and the world of investing is changing too. Yesterday, it was enough to invest in the United States. Today an investor must think globally. Tomorrow, the small investor will not have the luxury of ignoring international markets. We are moving rapidly to a global economy characterized by a limited number of leading stock exchanges open twenty-four hours per day. The global economy is moving towards a limited number of leading currencies used in global trade. Either we invest accordingly, or we will find ourselves assigned to the backwashes of the world.
